| Popis: | Item does not contain fulltext A 48-year-old myopic patient with bilateral anterior chamber depth of 3.1 mm and endothelial cell density (ECD) of 2525 cells/mm(2) and 2638 cells/mm(2) preoperatively had bilateral implantation of an Artisan iris-fixated phakic intraocular lens (pIOL). Five years postoperatively, unilateral corneal stromal edema was seen in a circumscribed area overlying the temporal ridge of the pIOL in the right eye; the ECD was 1631 cells/mm(2) and the pachymetry, 586 microm. Explantation of the pIOL was refused by the patient. Seven years postoperatively, the ECD was 413 cells/mm(2) in the right eye and corneal decompensation occurred. The progressive unilateral endothelial loss was explained by excessive rubbing of the eyes because of chronic itching and an anterior shift of the pIOL over the 7 years as demonstrated by anterior optical coherence tomography. |
